Abstract
A mobile terminal and an antenna determining method are provided. The mobile terminal includes a housing, a processor, at least two antennas and at least two pressure sensors. The pressure sensors are configured to acquire values of pressures applied to a surface of the housing and send the acquired pressure values to the processor; the processor is configured to receive pressure values sent by the pressure sensors, to determine at least one contact position between a user and the mobile terminal based on pressure values sent by at least one of one or more first side pressure sensors and at least one of one or more second side pressure sensors, to determine an antenna to receive or send signals from the at least two antennas based on the at least one contact position.
